Is Cogsy an alternative to BeProfit?

No. BeProfit is a profit analytics app and Cogsy has no profit dashboard, ad spend or order reports. Cogsy manages the product cost that a profit app starts from, so the two are used together more often than one replaces the other.

How much does BeProfit cost?

From $49 to $249 a month, as shown on its Shopify App Store listing on 8 October 2026. Check the listing for current pricing.

Does BeProfit keep a history of cost changes?

BeProfit's listing and help pages do not mention one. Cogsy records every cost as a dated row with a source, and a row is never edited or deleted.

Cogsy vs BeProfit

BeProfit is a profit analytics app with a live P&L, ad integrations, LTV and retention reports, and views across several shops and platforms. Cogsy does none of that. It manages the cost of each variant, with a history, sources and costs on top.
